Public Footpaths

There are some 24 miles of public footpaths in the parish which afford some of the most splendid scenery in the County. The ancient woodlands of Bonny, Priestley, Swingen's, Park and Ditch Wood are noted features of the area, and are a natural habitat to flora and fauna including orchids, bluebells, deer and nightingales.

In 1998 the Suffolk Ramblers Association presented Barking with its 'Premier Pleasure to Walk Award'.

You can download a Guide detailing all these walks from this Barking Parish website or you can buy a printed copy for £1.50 from the Parish Clerk 01449 677882.
